In Ages Past

[Christopher M. Still]

Water Oak has the privilege to have a copy of the masterpiece by Christopher M. Still, "In Ages Past", which was commissioned for the Florida House of Representatives. Still hoped that through this painting the viewer would be inspired to have a strong connection to-and a deep respect for-the ancient world of Florida, its beautiful native landscape, and its first inhabitants who undoubtedly admired the same spectacular sunsets we do today.

Christopher M. Still says "there is an intentional theme in the painting of eyes that are looking out to watch the viewer in the room. The shape of the opening between the oak tree and artifacts, down to the fish, creates a pattern based on the eye of the Key Marco deer head, which helps represent the eye of nature."
